Starting from the Planetary Governor-Chapter 770 - 428, I am the Dominant Bishop!_3
Chapter 770: Chapter 428, I am the Dominant Bishop!_3 Chapter 770: Chapter 428, I am the Dominant Bishop!_3 In the span of over a year, she thrived on Jindi Star like a fish in water.
The internal struggles within the Sect of Mechanics were quite intense and brutal, something Wu Jiarong knew all too well.
She was originally from Jindi Star, and before she knew it, she became a sacrificial piece and was offered as human tribute.
Of course, this was unreasonable—Jindi Star was the Foundry World of the Sect of Mechanics, a type of world that should not even have to shoulder Imperial Tax.
She had been utterly played by others.

But, the one who schemed against her could never have imagined that one day, she would return, and as an esteemed guest at that.
Amidst the fierce internal fights of the Sect of Mechanics, the sect’s reverence for technological abilities was also profoundly intense.
Upon her return, Wu Jiarong displayed remarkable abilities in several speeches and project consultations she participated in, thus laying the foundation of respect she garnered.
Furthermore, many of the technologies she mastered weren’t even present within the Mingyang Sect to begin with.
It made sense, as Wu Jiarong’s academic foundation was built upon her studies on Jindi Star, but the technological and academic growth that followed was mostly due to her research on the Black Box.
She analyzed every product directly outputted by the Black Box, deducing the essence behind these most precise creations, thus she gained insight.
The so-called technologies she possessed that weren’t available in the Mingyang Sect weren’t just about her having the production blueprints for the Warhound Titan that Jindi Star could not build.
Of course, Jindi could build Warhounds, they even had the capability to manufacture Titans of a higher grade—Warlord Titans.
Taking the Warhound Titan as an example, Wu Jiarong learned some unique technical details; for instance, she understood specific technical aspects of a weapon component by studying key parts produced by the Black Box.
This knowledge allowed for a 7% increase in firepower and greater safety and stability when equipping Warhound Titans with melt weaponry.
She not only knew how to do it but also how to improve the production line to achieve this goal.
This was a technical detail that she mastered after researching the absolute standard parts produced by the Black Box, something absent on Jindi Star.
Without a doubt, such details were very important.
And there was much more like this.
As long as the Alliance produced output from the Black Box, and she studied it thoroughly, there would always be similar gains, the value of which varied.
Of course, she wouldn’t foolishly lay all these discoveries out in the open—that would win her not admiration, but suspicion and greed.
The degree to which she disclosed her findings was just right.
The knowledge she shared had been pre-arranged with Gu Hang.
These efforts, in exchange for recognition from the Sect of Mechanics and a formal title, and the opportunity to trade for some technology in return, were a worthwhile trade-off.
She smoothly passed the review conducted by a council of six Principal Sages and acquired the title of Dominant Bishop.
In the past, her abilities were simply sufficient; now, having secured her position, the consequent honors, status, and privileges were quick to follow.
Then, in her spare time from regular activities, she did a ‘little something’: she looked into who was behind sending her to become an irreplaceable technical specialist within the Tianma Fleet as a human tribute.
Latterly, she realized it was indeed a trivial matter.
One of her ‘colleagues,’ also vying for a promotion to mechanic, couldn’t beat her through normal evaluations and, burdened with an old grudge, leveraged some connections, bribed his relative—it was just a Mechanical Priest—and then she was sent away.
After uncovering this, she initially had no intention of pursuing it further.
It wasn’t all bad—in absence of that event.
If she hadn’t been sent away that year and met Mr.
Gu.
she might still be floundering on Jindi Star, possibly still stuck at the mechanic level after fourteen years.
Without extraordinary circumstances, ascending social classes is incredibly difficult.
At most, she could have found someone to mentor her, maybe reaching the grade of Mechanical Priest, likely marking the capstone of her life.
But where was she now?
Already formally recognized as a Dominant Bishop, a person of considerable influence on the entire Jindi Star.
However, she didn’t need to personally take any action.
The mere investigation of the matter drew the attention of interested parties.
Subsequently, that Mechanical Priest and his entire family swiftly became slaves.
Wu Jiarong even asked once if that was a bit too much.
A monitor acting as an engine Prophet humbly smiled and said it wasn’t.
That person was already corrupt, and getting rid of him was akin to removing a pest.
Wu Jiarong said no more.
She remembered that day, she gazed up at the dim sun hanging in Jindi Star’s sky, filled with myriad emotions.
All past grievances had vanished into thin air.
Gone along with them was the last shred of her desire to return to the Sect of Mechanics.
According to her original plan, it was time to go back.
She had become a Dominant Bishop officially recognized by the Sect of Mechanics and had earned some reputation, even avenging her past grudges.
The work she intended to do on Jindi had more or less been completed; it was time to return and prepare to establish her own splinter sect.
The grade of Dominant Bishop was sufficient.
